About This Item
"Best wishes from Mike and me -- Mickey Spillane" INSCRIBED Boldly by Spillane with NO personalization. An extremely good First Edition copy of The Girl Hunters. Tiny soiling on paper edges and a tad of crinkling at the bottom of a very firm spine. No cocking, no bookplate, no writing of any kind save for Spillane's. The Near-Fine Unclipped jacket has minimal edgewear and very light staining. "As a writer, Mickey Spillane has a brilliant literary talent. Few modern writers can approach his originality, his imagination, his sense of drama, the ingenuity of his plot structures" (Ayn Rand, Oct, 1962). A stunning Spillane inscription on a highly collectible copy. Book #C2203. $295. We specialize in Rare Ayn Rand, history, and science.
